after many years of investment in multiplayer games, V Club returned to the era of developing its iconic stand-alone games through "half life: alyx". The latter's media reputation and player evaluation also witnessed that V club made the right decision. In an interview with edge, an old British game magazine, Gabe Newell, the boss of V club, said he was excited about the future of stand-alone games

in fact, he believes that the advantages of Ai Ai will reverse the current popular trend of multiplayer games to some extent

"we are beginning to move towards an era that is about to reverse, and the driving force behind this is AI. At present, openai robots are better than 99% of DOTA players in the world. In fact, this is a very small challenge for AI. It is easier to defeat humans than to entertain humans. But in the next few years (if you ask me, my answer is 9 years) , we will have universal artificial intelligence, which can do anything a smart person can do. At first, it may cost a billion dollars to build this kind of silicon man, but then it will become cheaper and cheaper, and the price will decline very quickly. Finally, it can reach such a level: there are 10 or 100 AI will live in your computer forever, which will mean that the stand-alone game will become more interesting

if you can develop a never-ending stand-alone game, that is, I can play it for 20 hours a week, and it can continue to develop and become richer. I may play it for more than 400 hours, and the feeling it brings to me is as fresh as the 20 hours I played at the beginning. I think this situation is more likely in the next five years than it was five years ago. This will be a structural change in the game industry, and AI will become more useful. It will transfer an area where multi person Geomagic freeform has advantages. It is the value optimization inflection point between large-scale customized games designed for parts and stand-alone games. "
